Pyle, manufacturers of home, car and pro audio equipment, has announced
its new partnership with Wiley to create two new Drums For Dummies Kits: Electronic
Tabletop Drums For Dummies™ and Electronic
Drum Kit For Dummies™.
“Pyle Audio’s reputation for quality audio products and feature-rich,
easy-to-use musical instruments makes the company an ideal partner for
our first-ever Drums For Dummies Kits,” said Marc Mikulich, Vice
President, Brand Management at Wiley. “We are thrilled to help our loyal
readers learn drum skills in a hands-on way and know they’ll be pleased
with the results.”
The Electronic Tabletop Drum For Dummies comes
packaged with Pyle’s PTEDO5 7-pad digital drum kit, which boasts a
variety of features, such as 100 pre-set songs and five editable beats
allowing users to effortlessly create studio quality sound.
It comes with seven touch sensitive drum pads, two foot pedals and two
drum sticks. Additionally, users can enjoy 25 pre-set drum beats, 215
percussion sounds and a USB port for users to combine their unique beats
with their favorite tunes.
For users looking for a more rock-star drum set, the Electronic
Drum Kit For Dummies comes packaged with Pyle’s
PED07 professional drum kit, which features a drum rack that sets up
just like a natural drum-set.
Other features include five natural response drum heads, two drum
sticks, two foot pedals, a sound module, cables and drum lock. Of
course, it also comes with the Drums For Dummies book and
CD, like the Tabletop kit. Additionally, users can supplement their
experiences with 11 pre-set drum beats with up to four variations,
16-bit sample sound fidelity, headphone jack, built-in metronome and a
MIDI in/out cable.
“Partnering with Wiley in the popular For Dummies series further
solidifies our place in the audio and musical instrument marketplace,
and we couldn’t be happier,” said Abe Brach, Marketing Manager at Pyle
Audio. “We not only have products for music professionals but for
novices as well, and this partnership is the perfect way to help new
musicians get their feet wet.”
